Holiday Brie - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 cup chopped fresh cranberries
1/2 cup chopped peeled pear
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon currants
1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
3 tablespoons cranberry juice
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 teaspoons lemon juice
15 ounces round ripe brie cheese
Preparation
-
Combine everything except the brie in a heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium high heat. Cover, reduce heat and simmer 30 mins, stirring frequently.
Uncover and cook 5 more minutes, or till slightly thickened. Cool to room temperature.
Cut a circle in the top rind of the brie, leaving a 1/4\" border. Carefully remove center circle of rind from cheese, leaving border intact.
Place the brie in a pretty pie plate or on a small ovenproof platter.
Spread cranberry mixture over top. Bake at 350 degrees for 12-15 mins, or just till cheese is bubbly.
Serve immediately with french bread, crackers, or slices of apple or pear.
